Thou will keep him in perfect peace

-->
"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee." Isaiah 26:3

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on Thee.

Marvel not that I say unto you,
Marvel not that I say unto you,
Marvel not that I say unto you,
Ye must be born again.

Love this song!!

We search for peace in many places and through different ways but do these solutions or actions really give us that peace?  The peace this world gives is only temporary.

This morning I am reminded that the peace that the Lord gives is perfect.

How do we get this gift of PEACE?

You must be born again. We get this peace through:
Jesus Christ. "And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Phil 4:7.

When we are born again, the Holy Spirit takes up residence in our hearts and the Word of God says "……the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruits in our lives:
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control…." Galatians 5:22-23


Who is the one that God will keep in perfect peace?

It’s the one whose mind is stayed on God. 
When this person goes through turmoil, hardships and challenges in life, their mind is focused on the GREATNESS and FAITHFULNESS of God.

It’s the one who TRUSTS God.
Trusts Him enough to allow Him to takeover! Trusts Him enough to cling on to His Words no matter what!

When these conditions are met, perfect peace takes over.

I love you Lord. Thank you for the peace that You so freely offer.
